Tom: G

G                G7           C
What a beautiful thought I am thinking

   D7                         G
Concerning the great speckled bird

                    G7        C
And to know that my name is recorded

       D7                  G
On the pages of God's Holy Word


            G7        C
Desiring to lower her standard

     D7                        G
They watch every move that she makes

                  G7             C
They long to find fault with her teachings

    D7                     G
But really she makes no mistake


                 G7             C
I am glad I have learned of her meekness

     D7                          G
I am glad that my name is on her book

                 G7        C
For I want to be one never fearing

    D7                   G
The face of my Savior to look


                   G7              C
And when He cometh descending from heaven

     D7                        G
On a cloud like He said in His Word

                 G7              C
I'll be joyfully carried to meet Him

       D7                          G
On the wings of the great speckled bird
